OPERATOR'S SEAT ASSEMBLY ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An operator's seat assembly for use on industrial vehicles, such as forklifts, for example, including a seat and a support for the seat on the frame of the vehicle. The seat is pivotally mounted to the support which, in turn, is pivotally mounted to the vehicle frame. This mounting arrange- ment allows the support to be tilted forwardly of the vehicle's operator's station; the seat pivot allows the seat to be tilted forwardly to a greater degree than would be possible with the support pivoted alone. Biasing members, preferably in the form of spring assemblies, are provided at each pivot location thereby providing forces to Urge the seat assembly to its for- ward position when the operator is not seated in the operator's compartment. This device is especially useful in electric forklifts wherein a removable battery is located beneath the operator's station, as the forward biasing mechanism provides sufficient clearance to permit removal of the battery by lifting.
